Incessant rain and flood in my part of the world. Death, destruction and doom...
J&K is inundated, plunged into darkness. Villages washed off, roads washed away, people left stranded.
On the other hand I am disgusted at the greedy human mind. People going after large wooden logs brought along by the ravaging flood, only to be washed away to their death. People travelling atop a bus en-route a marriage party, even while it is storming until the bus itself is washed away killing over fifty..
People quarreling over the ownership of logs deposited on river banks. People building house right at the centre of riverbed, claiming compensation after a flood and moving to government accommodation, selling it off after a few months for several lakhs, moving back to the riverbed only to repeat the same cycle..
Can you believe it?? I wouldn't have unless I saw it first hand...
There are some brave hearts who risk everything to save others, even those who regard them as enemies. The Indian Jawan in the service of the nation...
In the midst of all this, happy to wish you all...
HAPPY ONAM...
